Re: track day
How varied are my likes, a nice looking Triumph Hurricane and a chopped lambretta hiding in the background. Everytime I see them Cubs hammering around that track I chuckle to myself

Re: track day
What an unexpected and fun day! Literally cannot wait for the next opportunity to take the Dogs round a track ..and for a fiver! with on-site cuppa's for 50p You can't beat that!
This was my first go on a track and the first time I've ridden the bike like that. Such a good laugh trying to improve your line and speed each lap, and felt like my riding improved quite a bit that day. Very surprised how comfortable I feel on it after only 5 months/1,000 miles ish. Obviously Herrod lapped me a couple of times, with his natural talent to go fast on/in anything with wheels, but I overtook a few fella's on the 'parade' The track was just about right for cubs as Herrod already said. It seemed a little too small and tight for the big bikes, although they still flew round easy enough!
I'm not sure if I'll be around next year, but a few more cubs would go down a treat there I can guarantee! Everybody were loving our bikes and you could see the smiles as we rode round. Surely there has to be more of these small scale track meets around the country, where we would be equally as welcome?!
Thanks to Herrod's Lady for the photos! I've got a couple to upload when I get on my own computer inc. one of Barnsley's own Reggie! (0f Barnsley Motorbike Salvage).
